'Don't you feel it growin', day by day
People gettin' ready for the news
Some are happy, some are sa-a-a-ad
Woah, gotta let the music play.

What the people need is a way to make them smile
Ain't so hard to do if you know how
Gotta get a message, get it on throu-ou-ou-ough
Oh now momma don't you ask me why.

Chorus:
Oh, oh, oh listen to the music,
(ditto a couple of times more)
all the time.

When, when i know you know baby, everything I say,
meet me in the country for a day.
We'll be happy and we'll dance.
Oh, we're gonna dance our blues away.

And if I'm feelin' good to you and you're feelin' good to me
there ain't nothin' we can't do or say.
Feelin' good, feeling fine.
Oh, baby, let the music play.

Chorus

Like a lazy flowing river
surrounding castles in the sky.
And the crowd is growing bigger,
list'nin' for the happy sounds,
and I got to let them fly.

Chorus...
